Module B > Stakeholders (11)

Stakeholder influence

Key stakeholders are your governing body, the participants, those who contribute time (partners) and money (funders). They decide whether to start the program, to participate in it, and to keep it going.

Stakeholders influence OBPE because of what they want to know and how they will use the answers they get.
